Core Tip

Core Tip: Gastrointestinal submucosal tumors are a prevalent condition affecting the digestive system. Endoscopic submucosal dissection efficaciously attenuates the risk of residual or recurrent tumors. The implementation of humanistic care and graded psychological support has shown to dramatically improve the quality of care and the recovery rate in postoperative patients. These approaches can ameliorate negative emotions and boost the overall quality of life. However, research on the effects of humanistic nursing care and graded psychological nursing in patients undergoing gastrointestinal submucosal tumors post-surgery is not fully. Here elucidated, we analyzed data from 180 patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastrointestinal submucosal tumors, focusing on their postoperative emotion state, quality of life, and complications. The results suggest that combining humanistic nursing care with graded psychological nursing care significantly alleviates postoperative negative emotions, shortens hospital stay, lowers complication rates, and improves quality of life scores.
